Phoenix Fire Patch — Order This Flame-Top Helmet Shield
Design S0621A at a glance
A shield whose top edge is cut into literal flames, with a phoenix spreading over a maltese cross and a traditional fire helmet at center — rebirth, the cross and the job in one silhouette. District name, founding year and unit banners all restitch to your department's wording, and the flame-top cut is traced exactly in the hot-cut border.

About this phoenix flame-top shield design
The custom flame-cut top edge is what sets this shield apart from standard department crests — the border itself does half the storytelling before the phoenix even registers. Red fields with tan panels and gold detailing keep the three emblems distinct at shoulder size, which matters when a patch carries this much symbolism.
Order it as shown or shape it for your district — the helmet can carry your company number, the phoenix recolors to gold-on-black for memorial sets, and the banner text is fully yours. This page shows a design concept we manufacture to order — your stitch-ready proof arrives 6–12 hours after you order, and nothing is produced until you approve it.

Phoenix fire patch questions
Can our own emblem replace the phoenix over the maltese cross on this patch?
Yes. Send a photo, a scan of an existing patch, or a PDF and we redraw it stitch-ready at no art charge. Your proof shows the redrawn art before anything is produced.
What colors can this phoenix fire patch be ordered in?
Any thread palette. Beyond the colorway shown, this art runs well in maroon-and-gold, blackout memorial or tan wildland schemes — preview each version in the markup tool and your quote references the one you picked.
Can this shield be ordered for turnout coats?
Yes — sew-on is the standard for turnout and station wear, stitched through the outer shell only. For helmet bags and soft kit, iron-on holds well; velcro suits rotating assignment covers.
Can the lettering carry our department's own wording?
Yes. District, year and unit lines each sit in their own banner. Every text field restitches to your exact wording — name, unit number, or a motto.
How do I request changes to this design?
Use the "mark up this design" tool in the quote form: circle elements, pin numbered notes, switch colorways, and place your own emblem on the patch. Your marked-up version attaches to the quote automatically.
Burning toward a different design?
